One Direction’s Harry Styles has split from TV presenter Caroline Flack.
The X Factor star 17 said that the break up was a mutual decision.
Styles met Flack who is 15 years older than him last year when she presented the Xtra Factor.
Flack, 32, had suffered much criticism of couples age gap. Defending her relationship she said: “What’s hard for me is people saying it’s disgusting. I don’t think it is.”
However the pair have decided to call it quits. Styles took to Twitter saying: “Please know I didn’t ’dump’ Caroline. This was a mutual decision. She is one of the kindest, sweetest people I know. Please respect that.”
The split came ahead of One Direction heading to the US for a tour.
